Loyle Carner returns with new single Hate

Loyle Carner has co-directed the video with Greg Hackett.

Loyle Carner has returned with his new single Hate; one of the few songs, he’s said, to have been made from such a place.

“I was angry at the world, frightened and overwhelmed. It’s unfiltered. Really just a stream of consciousness that builds to an understanding that hate is rooted in fear. It reminds me of times the red mist takes over, and how alone you feel when the rest mist passes.”

“Arrogant and self-righteous but at the same time vulnerable and somber. I listen to this one in my car, at night. Especially after an argument when you need to get space and take a breath.”

It’s moving Carner on from the second studio album Not Waving, But Drowning – a UK Top 3 in the spring of 2019.
